Dynamic SSK-BPSK System Under Transmitter Correlated Nonidentical Rayleigh Fading

Space shift keying (SSK) is a single radio frequency (RF) chain multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme which uses the indices of transmit antennas for information transmission. Time successive SSK-M-ary modulation (TSSM) is a second order transmit diversity scheme based on single RF chain multiple antenna transmitter. In this letter, TSSM based on selection combining (TSSM-SC) is conceived to realize a single RF chain receiver for TSSM without compromise on the diversity order. The metric of receiver antenna selection is proposed for TSSM-SC. A novel approach is given to find a tight upper bound on the bit error rate (BER) of TSSM-SC in simple closed form. Further, the diversity order of TSSM-SC is analyzed with asymptotic expression. Simulation results that validate the analyses are given to show the diversity gain at reduced receiver complexity. The performance of TSSM-SC is compared with other schemes with selection combining to highlight its performance advantage.

Space shift keying (SSK) is a single radio frequency (RF) chain multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme that uses the index of transmit antennas for information transmission. Time successive SSK-M-ary modulation (TSSM) and multi RF chain TSSM (MRF-TSSM) are recent MIMO techniques that achieve second order transmit diversity. We propose two cooperative relaying systems to attain distributed diversity in addition to transmit diversity of TSSM and MRF-TSSM. Cooperative-TSSM-1 (Coop-TSSM-1) uses multibranch relaying where TSSMis used in orthogonal time slots during the cooperative phase. Coop-TSSM-2 maps symbols to lower order constellations at multiple relays for simultaneous transmission of information using MRF-TSSM. We consider Decode-and-forward (DF) relaying where relays that correctly detect symbols forward it. We analyze the average number of relays that participate in cooperation, the end-to-end performance using a tight upper bound on the bit error rate (BER) and the asymptotic BER expressions to analyze diversity orders of both cooperative systems. We validate all analyzes using simulation results. From the analysis and results we show that Coop-TSSM-1 achieves better diversity order compared to Coop-TSSM-2 at the cost of higher number of time slots for completing the cooperative phase. Further in Coop-TSSM-2, results indicate that different constellation mappings used in MRF-TSSM during cooperative phase impact the BER performance. By applying spatial modulation based transmit diversity and M-ary Modulation systems in the cooperative setups of Coop-TSSM schemes, performance comparison is given which highlights the significance of Coop-TSSM schemes.

In this letter, we propose a cooperative multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme combining transmit antenna selection (TAS) and space shift keying (SSK). In this scheme, source transmit antennas are selected and SSK is applied by using the selected antennas. Besides the direct link transmission, the relays, that decode the source signal correctly, take part in the transmission. Exact expressions and a considerably accurate approximate expression for the symbol error rate of the proposed SSK system are derived. It is shown that the proposed scheme outperforms the SSK system without TAS and also the conventional cooperative MIMO system, which employs source TAS, at practical signal-to-noise ratio values for especially high data rates and sufficient number of receive antennas at the destination.

In this letter, we consider an $N_{r} \times N_{t}$ multiple-input–multiple-output system in which $M$ -ary phase shift keying (MPSK) and space shift keying (SSK) are used in successive time slots. We call this system time successive SSK-MPSK (TSSM), and we show that this system achieves a transmit diversity order of 2. In TSSM, during the first time slot, information is transmitted with MPSK symbols using all $N_t$ transmitter antennas, with each antenna using $N_{t}^{\textrm{th}}$ of the total transmitter power. During the second time slot, SSK modulation is used to transmit the same information. We further derive the optimal detection criterion, pairwise error probability, and the average union bound of the bit error rate (BER) of TSSM. We show the diversity order using asymptotic approximation of the average union bound of the BER of TSSM. We compare the BER of TSSM with that of time orthogonal signal design assisted SSK, coherent space time shift keying, and other schemes. The simulation results show that TSSM performs considerably better.

This paper provides an insightful discussion on the performance analysis of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) space modulation scheme. A mathematical expression for the average bit error probability of Space shift keying (SSK) with generalized selection combining (GSC) diversity scheme is presented. SSK modulation scheme uses antenna index for relaying information rather than symbol modulation. Due to the nature of the SSK transmission scheme, it is difficult to distinguish a transmitted pulse from two correlated branches at each receive antenna, if the correlation between the transmitted RF pulses from two different transmit-antennas is more. Under this circumstances, its bit error rate performance is severely degraded even though SNR is high. In general, SSK receiver employs maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity scheme. The MRC diversity scheme is the optimal combining scheme which maximizes the SNR at the combiner output. However, MRC requires high signal processing complexity and more number of RF chains at the receiver end, which in turn, it consumes more power. It also needs the knowledge of the channel fading amplitude and phase for constructive combining. Analytical and simulation results show that the difference in the performance of SSK with MRC and GSC is insignificant.

Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems with limited Radio Frequency (RF) chains play a pivotal role in the Fifth Generation (5G) of wireless networks. However, the transmitter of Generalized Spatial Modulation MIMO (GSM-MIMO) systems that characterized by a single RF chain and multiple active antennas is capable of reducing both the energy consumption and the transmitter cost. In this paper, combining GSM-MIMO systems with the fully digital Geometric Mean Decomposition (GMD)-based precoding scheme and Analog Beamforming (ABF) into Hybrid Beamforming (HBF) regime is presented for Millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive MIMO systems which is a key enabler for 5G networks. In addition, applying the norm-based user selection algorithm in GSM-MIMO scheme with GMD-based hybrid precoding is proposed, and referred to as Multiuser Steered GSM-MIMO (MUS-GSM-MIMO) scheme. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed schemes are capable of achieving considerable performance gains over the conventional GSM-MIMO schemes, while avoiding the overwhelming costs of multiple RF chains. Therefore, the proposed schemes are very efficient and highly suitable for large-scale and 5G wireless networks.

In this paper, we propose space-polarization shift keying (SPSK) modulation scheme for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems employing dual-polarized antenna array, where the concept of space shift keying (SSK) is extended to include both the space and polarization dimensions. In the SPSK, polarization index also been used to relay the information along with the antenna index. As a result, the proposed transmission scheme reduces the signal processing complexity at the receiver exponentially when compared to the SSK scheme, for a given target transmission rate. In this correspondence, we investigate the performance of $$ 4\times 4 $$4×4 SPSK---MIMO configurations over different wireless channel scenarios for a range of values of the correlation coefficient and the Rician K-factor. We also highlight the effect of random orientation of antennas at the mobile unit on the bit error rate performance of SSK and SPSK transmission scheme. By using analytical results and simulations, we show that the proposed scheme outperforms the SSK scheme under line-of-sight channel conditions and its performance is comparable to SSK under non-line-of-sight channel conditions, for various receive-antenna inclination angle.

An underwater acoustic multimedia communication (UWAMC) system is proposed with 2400 transmission modes according to time-varying multipath underwater acoustic (UWA) channel conditions. The orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) scheme and Gold sequence (GS) scramble code are integrated into multi-input multi-output UWAMC system based on orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing to achieve the quality of service of multimedia transmission in the UWA channel. Binary phase shift keying (BPSK) and quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) adaptive modulation, direct mapping (DM) or space–time block code (STBC) transmission strategies, convolution channel code with rate 1/2 and 1/3, and a power assignment mechanism were adopted in the proposed system. Simulation results show that the bit error rate (BER) and power saving ratio (PSR) performance of the STBC strategy with transmission diversity is superior to that of the DM strategy without transmission diversity, and the performance of the BERs and PSRs of the transmission scheme with the GS scramble code surpasses that of the scheme without the code. The performance of the BERs and PSRs of BPSK modulation with a channel code rate of 1/3 is better than that of BPSK modulation with a channel code rate of 1/2, and the performances of BERs and PSRs of BPSK modulation with a channel code rate of 1/3 are better than that of QPSK modulation with a channel code rate of 1/3. As the length of the OVSF codes increases, the UWAMC system’s BERs decrease, and its PSRs increase. The UWAMC system can achieve either maximum transmission speed or maximum transmission power efficiency.

The WiMax (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a technology in<strong> </strong>broadband wireless access, which employs OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) as an alternative transmission to enable high speed data in communication system. This research aim is to analyze the performance system of the OFDM-Based WiMAX, which used the cyclic prefix. The model was designed in four schemes of simulation method, the BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying, QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying), 16 QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) and 64 QAM. Each scheme was investigated BER (Bit Error Rate) on AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) channel and multipath Rayleigh fading channel, which had applied the cyclic prefix. By simulation of the cyclic prefix was produced the modulation measurement of the BPSK, QPSK, 16 and 64 QAM. The performance result of Eb/No 15 dB was obtained the BER of BPSK and QPSK of 1.11E-11, the BER of 16 QAM and 64 QAM of 8.69E-06 and 0.00333 respectively. Those results indicated much smaller BER value than EbNo 0 dB which BPSK and QPSK of 1 BER, 1.5 and 1.75 BER for 16 QAM and 64 QAM respectively. In conclusion, a higher value of EbNo, hence the BER value would be lower.

Visible light communication (VLC) is considered a breakthrough wireless communication technology that has been proven capable of achieving very high data rates. This is a key advantage in indoor communication scenarios, since the vast majority of wireless traffic is witnessed in indoor communications. In every wireless system, the trade-off between achievable throughput, transmit signal power and corresponding error rate performance is largely dependent upon the considered modulation format. This is also the case in VLC systems, which are typically characterized by stringent performance requirements. Motivated by this, in the present contribution we introduce the space shift keying (SSK) modulation scheme in the context of non-orthogonal-multiple-access (NOMA) communications, which have been shown to be a performance enhancer of indoor based VLC systems. Based on this, all network users in the considered set up receive the same superimposed signal of all NOMA users, which is transmitted from the activated transmitters corresponding to the multiplexed SSK users information. Based on this and assuming a unique maximum likelihood detection, we quantity the system performance in terms of the corresponding bit error rate (BER) performance at each receiver. This analysis leads to the development of useful insights of theoretical and practical interest, which are expected to be useful in the effective design, implementation and deployment of SSK in NOMA based VLC systems.

Space shift keying (SSK) is a special case of spatial modulation (SM), which is a relatively new modulation technique that is getting recognized to be attractive in multi-antenna communications. Our new contribution in this paper is an analytical derivation of exact closed-form expression for the end-to-end bit error rate (BER) performance of SSK in decode-and-forward (DF) cooperative relaying. An incremental relaying (IR) scheme with selection combining (SC) at the destination is considered. In SSK, since the information is carried by the transmit antenna index, traditional selection combining methods based on instantaneous SNRs can not be directly used. To overcome this problem, we propose to do selection between direct and relayed paths based on the Euclidean distance between columns of the channel matrix. With this selection metric, an exact analytical expression for the end-to-end BER is derived in closed-form. Analytical results are shown to match with simulation results.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems employing both maximal-ratio transmission and receive antenna selection (MRT&RAS) are studied in this paper. The examination has been done for independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) flat Nakagami-m fading channels. Exact bit error rate (BER) expressions for binary phase shift keying (BPSK), differential binary phase shift keying (DBPSK) and binary frequency shift keying (BFSK) signals are derived by using the moment generating function (MGF)-based analysis method. By deriving upper bounds for exact BER expressions, it is shown that the investigated systems achieve full diversity orders at high signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). Also, the ergodic system capacity and outage probability of MRT&RAS scheme have been analyzed. Exact BER results for different system and channel conditions are validated by Monte Carlo simulations.

최근 대용량, 초고속 통신 서비스의 비중이 높아짐에 따라 배열 안테나를 사용하는 MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) 시스템의 활용이 중요하게 평가되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 MIMO 시스템은 다수의 안테나를 사용하기 때문에 안테나의 개수만큼 RF(Radio Frequency) 체인이 요구되며, 이로 인해 복잡도와 전력 소모가 크다는 단점을 가진다. 이러한 기존 MIMO 시스템의 단점을 해결하기 위해서 단일 능동 소자와 다수의 기생 소자를 이용하는 방식의 ESPAR(Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator) 안테나를 사용하는 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. ESPAR 안테나를 사용하는 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템은 단일 RF 체인으로 구성되어 있기 때문에 기존 MIMO 시스템의 단점을 해결할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 시스템의 보안성을 향상시키기 위해 QPSK(Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) 변조 방식의 ESPAR 안테나를 사용하는 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템에 비예측성, 비주기성, 구현의 용이성, 민감한 초기조건 등의 특징을 가지고 있는 카오스 통신 알고리즘을 적용하여 QPSK 변조 방식의 ESPAR 안테나를 사용하는 카오스 빔 공간 MIMO 시스템을 구성하고 성능을 평가한다. Recently, utilization of MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) system using array antennas is evaluated significantly according to the extension of high-capacity and high-speed communication services. However, MIMO system has disadvantages such as high-complexity and high-power-consumption, because RF(Radio Frequency) chain is required as antenna number, and several array antenna is used in conventional MIMO system. In order to solve these problems, research about beamspace MIMO system using ESPAR(Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator) antenna that has single RF chain by using one active antenna and several parasitic elements has been studied actively. Beamspace MIMO system using ESPAR antenna is possible to solve the problems of conventional MIMO system, because this system is composed by single RF chain. In this paper, in order to improve the system security, chaos communication algorithm that has characteristics such as non-periodic, non-predictability, easy implementation and initial condition is applied to QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) modulated beamspace MIMO system. We design the chaos QPSK modulated beamspace MIMO system, and evaluate SER performance of this system.

Error performance of a selection diversity (SD) receiver is evaluated over non-identical fading channels, where the fading statistics of individual branches are different. Bit-error rate (BER) results are directly obtained from the cumulative distribution function, which drastically reduces the complexity of analysis and simplifies BER expressions. In particular, using this approach, we are able to generate unified simple, closed-form BER expressions for different modulation schemes under non-identical fading conditions in Rayleigh and Nakagami fading channels. Theoretical results are corroborated with simulation results.

Hardware designs for variant receive space modulation techniques (RSMTs) containing a reduced number of hardware components are proposed in this study. RSMTs rely on precoding of transmitted signals through channel knowledge at the transmitter to spatially modulate the receive antennas. As such, certain receive antennas will only receive messages while all other antennas will not receive any signal. It has been debated in literature that different RSMTs can be designed with single radio frequency (RF) chain receiver. Yet, practical designs are not yet available in literature. In this paper, a family of receiver designs for RSMTs based on commercial off‐the‐shelf components (COTS) are proposed and analyzed. Average error probability, power consumption, cost, and receiver complexity of the different techniques are presented and discussed. Additionally, Simulink models for all these systems are developed and presented. It is revealed that all RSMTs, in fact, do not require more than a single RF chain receiver or in some cases no RF chain, just by utilizing COTS components.
